I chose ibus, and nothing happened, even after Alt+F2 "r". I also tried leaving the option for ibus chosen for my input sources, and I restarted. However, nothing happens until I open a terminal and type "ibus engine." I don't even technically have to specify m17n:zh:py. However, once I can type in Chinese, I cannot turn ibus input method off (there is no icon in the panel where it used to show up...Ctrl+Space doesn't work), and so I have to use the regular Gnome keyboard input switiching (now Super+Space to switch between my regular, system keyboards to go back to typing in English). So I can type in Chinese (by command "ibus engine" in terminal). Ctrl+Space doesn't work, and there is no ibus icon in the taskbar/top GNOME panel like there used to be. I can also return to typing with my usual keyboard layouts (by manually switching to a new keyboard layout via Super+Space (default keyboard switch for GNOME) and switching back to my English keyboard) > > > Is the content of the /etc/X11/default-display-manager file to be > > > /usr/sbin/gdm3 > > > > > > > Yes > > Hmmmm...
